THE ATLANTA Fair,

The material progress Of the South in the
last seven or eight years has been remarkable.
A table recently published OF the increase IN
valuations taken from the assessors returns
shows that the total valuation for the twelve
Southern States was, for 1679-'SO, So, 164,-
1872. 795, and for 18S6-'S7 S3,064, SOC, 443,
showing gain of more than S9OO,OOO,OOO.
This is fact which can be regarded with
genuine satisfaction everywhere. The pros
perity of one State or one section Of this Union
u.s. in measure at least, the prosperity OF all.
and the rapid strides in industrial development
taken by the Southern States, which were for
so many years backward and almost impov-
erished, will be regarded with no more pleas
ure anywhere than in the North.
1t is claimed that the Atlanta Exposition,
held seven wears ago, was largely instrumental
in stimulating this development 1t made
the first adequate demonstration OF Southern
resources that had ever been made, and drew
the attention of many capitalists to invest
ments in that section. Another Exposition is
to be opened in Atlanta on the 10th OF October.
continuing twelve days, which, it is said, will
be the most imposing display OF Southern pro-
ducts and manufactures ever known, and will
give just idea Of the progress made in the
interval. The coal and iron cities, such as
Birmingham, Admission, Sheffield, etc, are to
make collective exhibitions of woods, minerals
and products, which the rivalry among them
is expected to render exceptionally fine. The
principal railroads arc to do the same and
here again the best foot will be put foremost.
Thirty counties are to make collective ex-
hibts of all their products. Tho managers
promise that the Northern capitalist will find
under the roof of the Exposition more OF
Southern riches than were ever brought to-
gcthcr before. All the signs are Of very
successful fair. President Cleveland's three
days visit is expected TO draw the greatest
crowd of Southerners ever seen. An effort
has been made TO induce Shcrman's veterans
to revisit the scene Of their old triumphs, and
they will be able to go from Cincinnati,
Chicago and st. Louis ut cent rates.
There are to be sham battles Examinations
and other popular features IN plenty.
This looks WELL and we are AL glad Of it.
And We are sure every progressive man In
Georgia will echo the wish when We say
that we hope the next time Georgia gives a
great fair she can show a working model Of a
well-0rdered and humane prison system-with
no chain gang, no barbarous punishmcnts-
and prove that in this respect, too, she has
made great step forward.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR BLooDsHED


The question of responsibility for bloodshed
mt Mitchelstown is one that can be easily
answered The Chief Secretary with all the
officials Of Dublin Castle behind him contends
that the leaders of the National League,
especially Mr.. OBrcn and Mr.. Dillon, chal-
| lenged the authority Of the Crown and brought
on the conflict between the constabular force
and the Irish. The Parnellites in Parliament
yesterday with Mr.. Labouchere and other
English witnesses to support them, declare
that the mass meeting could not have been
more orderly and peaceable, and that the
police made an unprovoked, unnecessary and
wanton onslaught upon the people. Tho
charge and the countercharge were argued in
detail i'm what was virtually the last debate
Of the session; but the real issue Of RESPONSE
bility lay further back. A Government which
interfercs with the right of free speech must
be held accountable for such bloody work as
was done at Mitchelstown. The door-posts
of Dublin Castle are smeared with the blood
stains of this Irish massacre. The right Of
the people to assemble peaceably and to pro-
test against the arrest of their representatives
and invasion of their liberties has been pro-
claimed Illegal. Scenes of violence and blood
shed have speedily followed
The resignation of General Butler marks the
recoil of brave soldier, who has learned to
sympathize with the tenants, from a wanton
enforcement of repressive legislation. He
does not believe that force is remedy; and
he knows by this time that the Government
lacks the nerve for administering it with a
firm resolute hand. The arrest Of MI. O'Bricn
was threatened fortnight ago. If 1t were
done at all it should have been done without
delay. The vacillation of the Castle Govern
mcnt in menacing an Irish leader with i'm
prisonment and then allowing him to 60 about
the country and repeat his challenge, has
probably exhausted the patience of a man OF
action like General Butler. He has lost faith
in coercion, however, and has no heart for
remaining longer in Office when he is convinced
that there is 70 alternative for Homo Rule
His withdrawal will weaken the Government,
whose interests he has served with singular
fidelity. successor less squeamish than him
self will readily be found. and Mr. O'Brien's
arrest win probably be followed by proceed
ings against other Irish leaders. Coercion
will run its course; and it will be a short one.
The scenes at Mitchelstown, for which the
Ministers are directly responsible. mark tho
